Dragon Clan: Lu Mingfei Returns from Japan

Chapter 443: The Dragon Script

To be precise, there are no "dragon characters written" on the rice paper, but rather "dragon characters traced".

Lu Mingfei looked at it carefully and found that the handwriting on the paper did not look like handwriting, but more like rubbings.

Many ancient calligraphers had a hobby of using paper to rub the inscriptions and calligraphy of their ancestors, so as to obtain the authentic works of their ancestors. The "words" on this piece of rice paper are also similar to these rubbings. Many inscriptions and calligraphy will weather over time, so the later the rubbings, the less clear the handwriting will be, and the places with complex strokes will appear mottled.

Lu Mingfei's major at Kassel College is "Dragon Genealogy", and he usually calls himself "History Department" or "Archaeology Department". In essence, he is studying professional knowledge similar to archaeology. Many of the executive department's specialists are from this major, and their main job is to participate in the excavation and archaeological work of various dragon relics around the world.

However, the activities of the dragon clan in history were closely related to the royal family and nobles, and many dragon clan relics were often hidden deep in ancient large tombs. Therefore, the excavation of large tombs often involved multiple forces, and most of the cultural relics related to the activities of the dragon clan could not be taken out by the academy in a short period of time.

At this time, one of the methods often used by the executive department is to temporarily record the dragon characters on the cultural relics by taking photos or using rubbing methods that do not damage the cultural relics themselves.

"Could it be that this is also the dragon script that the academy copied from some tomb?"

Lu Mingfei suddenly thought about it, but he couldn't figure out what the purpose of giving him this dragon text was.

Did it hope that he could resonate with it and have "clairvoyance" to decipher this dragon text?

He had indeed participated in the interpretation of dragon characters. When he first entered Kassel College, he successfully deciphered the dragon characters of the Three Gorges Bronze City and solved the maze-like map of the Bronze City...

But he was able to decipher the dragon text at that time thanks to the secret book Lu Mingze gave him, "Black sheep wall". Lu Mingfei himself had zero resonance with the dragon text, and even the Emperor of Words was useless to him. He had to rely on the cheat sheet he bought from Finger to pass the 0E exam.

"Brother, do you still remember what my senior sister looked like when she asked you to bring this letter to me? Did she say anything else?" Lu Mingfei looked up and asked Chu Zihang.

Chu Zihang thought for a while and then said, "She looks like an East Asian girl, with short hair, and she's pretty."

Short hair, very beautiful...

Lu Mingfei complained in his heart, "Senior brother, can you be a little more lacking in adjectives?"

But I guess the paralyzed senior brother can't say adjectives like "shoulder-length hair is soft and translucent, and the delicate oval face is white and radiant"...

But the East Asian girl... that was probably Jiude Aki. Lu Mingfei remembered that Jiude Aki did have short hair.

And although his bloodline is S-level, not many people in the academy know him. Apart from the principal who is an old friend of his great-grandfather Lu Shanyan and knows him, only Professor Mans and others know him.

"As for the other things, she also said that this matter is not very urgent. This letter can be kept with you for the time being. Thank you for your help." Chu Zihang added.

After hearing what Chu Zihang said, Lu Mingfei stroked his chin, guessing in his heart that it was probably Jiude Aki, or Professor Mance, and their team who participated in the excavation of some dragon ruins and obtained a piece of dragon text that could not be deciphered.

Senior Sister Aki, who happened to be in the capital, might have participated in the internship activity that Senior Brother with Expression Paralysis mentioned, and learned from him that he knew her.

That's why the senior sister asked the senior brother to pass the dragon text to her, wanting him with a higher bloodline to help try to decipher it?

Dragon script is the script of the dragon race. The higher the bloodline of a hybrid, the easier it is for them to resonate with dragon script and have clairvoyance.

Um... maybe he is an exception?

"I see."

Lu Mingfei nodded and wanted to continue chatting with Chu Zihang when the classic Nokia phone in his pocket rang. The caller ID showed it was Su Xiaoqiang... He guessed that most of the people from the pizza restaurant had arrived, so he called to urge him, the squad leader, to hurry over.

After saying goodbye to Chu Zihang in a hurried and embarrassed manner, Lu Mingfei put the envelope into the compartment of his schoolbag and hurriedly paid the bill at the checkout counter. Then, Lu Mingfei quickly rushed to the Sophie Rad Pizza restaurant next door.

……

In the largest private room of Sophie Lade's Pizza, all the students from the two classes were crowded together at four tables, two tables for boys and two tables for girls.

No one asked for it, but the boys and girls still sat separately, as if they were in a class where the teacher had caught some of them in a premature relationship. The space in the middle of the table was like the Chu River and Han River that separated the two groups, and the small circles were chatting animatedly.

However, this delicate balance was broken after Lu Mingfei entered the room...

He was now sitting in a seat between two tables of girls, with a serious posture. On his right were Liu Miaomiao, Su Xiaoqiang, Chen Wenwen and others, and on his left were a group of girls who were looking at him with curiosity and sparkles. He was sandwiched between the two classes of girls.

As for the boys in Class 1 and 2, they stared at him viciously. If looks could be used as knives, then Lu Mingfei would have been poked with countless holes by those twenty-odd pairs of eyes.

To be honest, Lu Mingfei was not a person who liked to be different. When he hurried to Sophie Rad's Pizza Restaurant, he found his class's box, opened the door, and looked around at the distribution of people in the box under a lot of gazes, and then he prepared to find a seat for the boys in Class 2 and sit down.

Just as he took a step into the door, Lin Huihui, who had just returned from ordering food, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Hey, squad leader, you're finally here? Miaomiao and the others have reserved a seat for you. Come in quickly..."

So Lu Mingfei was pushed by the shoulders without any explanation and sat between the two groups of girls in class one and class two.

"Squad leader, what kind of pizza do you want? I'll cut it for you?"

The girl who was sitting next to Lu Mingfei popped her head out and said, her face red and her voice nervous and a little timid.

Lu Mingfei pretended not to notice the sharp look from the monitor and politely smiled and waved his hand, saying "no thanks". However, just as he managed a smile, the face of the girl opposite him turned even redder and a jeer rose from the crowd.

Lu Mingfei: "..."

He had seen this kind of scene before. When he was in Takamagahara, the popular gigolo in the store would come out from behind the scenes and onto the stage, and the wealthy ladies in the audience would let out similar exclamations, and the coupons would fly all over the sky like fireworks.

The memory of being a gigolo suddenly attacked Lu Mingfei, and he suddenly understood the feelings of Chu Zihang who always lived in the center of girls.

"Okay, okay, stop making trouble. The monitor's girlfriend is sitting next to us."

Lin Huihui smiled and suppressed the noise of the girls. It seemed that she was very popular not only among the boys, but also among the girls, and the exclamations were immediately suppressed.

At this time, someone reached out and patted Lu Mingfei on the shoulder. Lu Mingfei turned around and saw that it was Su Xiaoqiang who had passed over Liu Miaomiao, with his delicate face resting on Liu Miaomiao's shoulder and blinking his eyes.

"What's wrong?" Lu Mingfei asked. "What kind of pizza do you want, squad leader? I'll cut it for you?" Su Xiaoqiang pouted slightly.

Lu Mingfei knew that the little goddess was jealous. Su Xiaoqiang's jealous point was quite strange. Sometimes she was very generous, for example, she accepted the "threesome" proposal more easily than Liu Miaomiao; sometimes she was very jealous, for example, a group of girls said something to Lu Mingfei just now, and the little goddess was very jealous.

Liu Miaomiao and Chen Wenwen were standing nearby, smiling as if they were watching the fun.

"Little goddess, why are you joining in the fun?" Lu Mingfei said in a low voice.

Su Xiaoqiang put his hands on his waist and replied confidently: "Why? The girls in Class 1 can call you class monitor, but the girls in Class 2 can't? Have you forgotten which class you are in?"

Then the girls in Class 1 started laughing again, and Lin Huihui took the lead in making fun of them: "Captain Lu, if Class 2 doesn't want you, we in Class 1 are always happy to welcome you."

The girls were all laughing, but over there, the class monitor's face suddenly turned pale, thinking that after Lu Mingfei took his title and got the girl in his class, was he finally going to make a move on his position?
……

While Lu Mingfei was having his first high school reunion, Su Enxi, who lived in the same building opposite Lu Mingfei, also received a secret letter.

The letter was passed to Lily, the personal secretary, through the internal channels of their Mint Club. After receiving it, Lily took a look at the cover and handed it to her. The sealed bag of the letter was clearly signed with "Нул", which is the Russian word for "0" and of course the name of Sanwuniu.

Su Enxi remembered that Mai told her that after Sanwuniu came back from Portugal, she was sent by her boss to carry out a confidential mission. Sanwuniu had not contacted them in the past two months. Now she suddenly sent back a secret letter. It is conceivable that the content of this letter is most likely related to the mission that Sanwuniu was carrying out this time.

It is very likely something important.

Maybe...it's what the boss needs.

It was just that the boss would only contact them when he had something for them to handle. They had basically never contacted the boss privately... It wasn't because they didn't have the boss's contact information, but the boss's timing of appearance was very subtle...

Su Enxi thought about it, picked up her phone and called Jiude Mai.

In the Japanese-style bathhouse "Munyuya" on the middle floor of the Prince InterContinental Hotel, Mai Jude was soaking in a cedar bathtub with rose petals floating on the water. Her slender and well-proportioned arms were naturally resting on the edge of the bathtub, and the steam that came out was like mist in the woods on an autumn morning.

Jude Mai was lying on her back facing the ceiling with a white hot towel covering her eyes. Her cheeks seemed to be a little red from taking a bath for too long.

She let out a long breath, thinking that this is life! Life should be enjoyed this way! Not playing house with a little boy. The tasks that the boss has given her recently are simply too perverted. I really don’t know if the boss has developed some new evil taste recently...

No... that guy doesn't seem to be a young boy anymore. He seems to have much more experience than me...

Rely on!
Jude Mai seemed to recall something embarrassing. Her long legs suddenly kicked violently on the water surface of the bathtub a few times, and her white thighs were glistening with water.

After being kicked a few times, Jiude Mai finally calmed down and wondered why she started thinking about that guy again. She had finally agreed with the potato chip girl to take a few days off to recuperate and heal the mental damage she had suffered, but why did she keep thinking about that guy?

She let out a long breath and adjusted her breathing using the breathing method commonly used by ninjas when lurking.

Empty your mind, empty your mind... Try not to let your mind wander and get rid of all the distracting thoughts in your mind...

The figure in her head was just about to be squeezed out when a rapid ring rang suddenly in the quiet bathhouse, disrupting her breathing again.

"Dingling, ringing, ringing..."

"Shit! Whose phone is this again?!"

Jude Mai sat up straight in the bathtub in annoyance, lifted the towel on her eyes, turned her head, reached for the cell phone next to the bathtub, glanced at the caller ID, and pressed the answer button.

"Potato chip girl, you'd better be in trouble!" Jiude Mai said viciously.

"If there's nothing to do, can't you just call me and chat with me?" Su Enxi's voice sounded lazy and mean in the microphone.

"No, I'm still recovering from my injuries. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up."

After Jiude Mai finished speaking, she was really about to press the hang-up button. At this time, Su Enxi's anxious voice immediately came out from the microphone: "No, no, no, long legs, don't hang up yet, there is business, there is business!"

Jiude Mai put the phone to her ear again and said calmly, "What's the matter?"

"By the way, long legs, haven't you recovered from your injury yet? It's been about half a month since you pretended to be Lu Mingfei's assistant, right?"

"Bye."

"I was wrong, I was wrong, long-legged, you are so magnanimous!"

Su Enxi on the other end of the phone hurriedly apologized while complaining in her heart that there was no need to heal psychological trauma... It was just that she was molested by a boy who was four or five years younger than her, and she was almost kissed by force... It's not like you two haven't kissed before...

"It should be related to the mission that Sanwu is carrying out. I received a letter from Sanwu, which I haven't opened yet. I want you to come and take a look at it together. Didn't you and Sanwu return to China together, and then parted at the Imperial Capital Airport?"

"A letter from Sanwu?"

Jiude Mai stroked her long hair with one hand, feeling a little strange.

It’s not that they were surprised that Sanwu would contact them suddenly, it’s just that letters...does Sanwu have the habit of writing letters?

They have an encrypted mailbox for internal communication. It's not because it's fashionable to communicate with each other through email, but because their encrypted mailbox is safe enough. Many secrets between them cannot be leaked. If there is any important information, they will share it with each other through email.

The distorted means of sending letters... Although the confidentiality level of the internal channels of the Mint Club is already high enough, this traditional way of communication can still be easily intercepted by others.

Is there something that can only be transmitted through letters?
"I understand. I'll be there right away." Jude Mai didn't think much about it and nodded immediately. She stood up from the bathtub, picked up a bathrobe from the side and put it on, and her bare feet stepped on the steaming wooden floor.

The beautiful scenery reminds people of a classic movie by Wong Kar-wai, "Happy Together".
